-Definitely today! Definitely today!
-Hel...

-Hel...LO!

Page 3:

-Ouch...

-So lame!

-Are you okay!? I-I'm sorry...
-Hey, Izumo-chan..!

-Shiemi,
-What are you doing over here...?

-Rin...

Flashbacks:
-Well, what is she then?
Your little friend?

-Sh...She's not...my... friend!

-I won't cry!
...I can't depend on Rin...!

-It's...nothing...!

-...I see...

Text: I'm going to become strong, too!

-Chapter 5: Flock of plovers
-How are you getting along in these summer days?

Page 5:
-Soon you'll break for 1 and a half months of summer holidays,
-But before that there is this years ExWire Authorization Exam.
[Tn: the kanji for Exwire is 'Cadet'.]

- Since its purpose is to provide combat training rather than just to make you Exwires,
The exam won't be that easy.

-ExWiyah?
-It's ExWire!
-And that is!?

-...Therefore I'll be holding a one-week training camp for the examinations,
-starting next week.

Page 6:

-A training camp...!?
-If you wish to participate in the training camp...
-Please fill in this form with acquisition hope "Meister" and submit it to me by Monday.

-Text: Again...
-Meister...? "Meister", huh...
-It's cause ya always messin' around with women!

-Huh?

-Nah, it's fine.

-So what's a "Meister"?
-Tell me...
-...please.

-What!?

Page 7:
-Ya don't even know that an' you're saying you want to become an exorcist! Get real!!
-Ahahaha! It's almost like Okumura-kun doesn't know anything!
-W..What the hell...
-So there are people like that in this world after all...

-"Meister" means...
-Konekomaru!! Don't tell him!
-Konekomaru!?
[Tn: It's his name, but "Koneko" also means kitten.]

-Now, about the technical qualification that are necessary for an Exorcist...
-The five categories are Knight, Dragoon, Tamer, Aria and Doctor.
-You can become an Exorcist if you acquire the title of "Meister" in any of the categories.

-So depending on the "Meister" the fighting style changes.
-I sort of understand! Thanks, Konekomaru.
Text, Rin; You're so kind!
Konekomaru: Not at all!
-What will you pick?
-What the hell is with you people actin' so friendly with each other!?

Page 8:
-Shima-san and I have our eye on "Aria".
- Aria's are the type of Meister who recites the Bible and sacred scriptures to fight.

-Bon's gonna push himself until he gets both Aria and Dragoon-
-Seriously? As expected of Bon!
-Suguro!
I won't forgive ya for talkin' all friendly-like about me!!

-Oh yeah... Didn't Okumura-sensei also get Doctor and Dragoon?
-Wow...
-He's really something...

-I wonder what I should do...
So what's a Dragoon?
-Goddammit! You're such a pain in the ass!!
Dragoons are a Meister that fight using heavy weapons! And Knights are Meister's who fight with swords...
-A sword!?

-...Well then, I'm gonna be a Knight!

Page 9:
-You're always so good at helping others, aren't you Bon?
-Shuttup!!
-That reminds me, you're always carrying a sword around, right?
-Yep.

-Just like I thought, Rin looks like he enjoys himself more when he's with other guys.

-What...should I do?

-Rin and Yuki-chan have always helped me out in...cram school...

-But it's not like they're always gonna be there to help me out...!
-It'd be weird if I keep following Rin around forever!

- Okay, I'll be summoning my Familiar now.

Page 10:
Box: Magic Circle/Art of Sealing
-Don’t step on the drawing.
-If you do, the magic circle is broken and it loses its effect.

-Your blood and an appropriate appeal is also necessary for a successful summoning.

-The son of Typhoeus and Echidna,
[Tn: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typhoeus & http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Echidna_(mythology) ]
-Answer my request and...

-Come out!

Page 11:
Monster: Aoorrgghhh...
-There are incredibly small amount of humans who can summon demons and make them work as a Familiar.

-Sheer spiritual fortitude is needed to tame the demons,
But natural talent is also essential.

-U..Urgh..!
Text: It stinks!!!
-Is that a Naberius...? It's...the first time...I've...seen one...
[Tn: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naberius]

-I’ll be testing you now to see if you have the talent.

-On the paper I gave you awhile ago,
-drip your own blood where
the Magic Circle has been roughly sketched.
Then try to recite any words that come to mind.

-I ask the grace of Inari, the God of Harvest,
[Tn: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inari_Okami
Also known as “Uka-no-Mitama”, he/she is the God of Harvests, Foxes and Fertility. Said to use pure white foxes as messengers.]

Page 12:
-to fulfill my prayers!!

-Holy crap!
What is that?
So cool!
-Two Byakko's...
Splendid, Izumo Kamiki.
[Tn: Byakko's are white spiritual foxes.]

-That was great, Izumo-chan...
I’m really useless at this stuff....
-Of course!
-I’m related to a Miko, after all!
[Tn: Miko's are Shrine Maiden.]

-Dammit, I've got no talent.
-Me neither.

Page 13:
-Wooow!

-Kamiki-san is so cool... Even though she's just a girl like me...

-I-I'll do it to..!

-Come out, come out wherever you are~~
-Just kidding...

-Nii!

Page 14:
-That’s a Greenman spirit.
How wonderful, Shiemi Murayama.
[Tn: The Green Man is an ancient symbol of nature.]

-Nii!

-He...hello...

-Ah!

-That tickles! Ahaha...!

-Oh, yeah!!

Page 15:

Text: Now's my chance to talk to her!
-Hey, Kamiki-san...

-I...I...I also called out a Familiar!!

-....Oh, good for you.
It's so surprisingly tiny.
-And cute, just like a speck~!

Text: Great!
Cute!!

-Th...Thank you!

-There seems to be a bumper crop of Tamer prospects this year.
-There are only a few Tamers among the Exorcists who can control demons and fight. They're pretty valuable.

Page 16:
-Demons never follow humans that are weaker than themselves.
And they are especially keen on attacking those that lack confidence
-But like I said before, if the magic circle is broken, the familiar is relieved of its post and disappears...
-If you feel like you're in danger, and you summoned a Familiar with "paper,"
Just tear the "paper" up.

-Nii!
-I don't want to have to get rid of you...
-Can I call you Nii-chan?

-Kamiki-san!

-Izumo-chan? She's calling you...
-Ignore her! Let’s go, Paku!　
-She pisses me off!

-Wait－!

Page 17:
-Hey! Heeeeey!

-What are you always following me for!?
-You're always acting all stuck up just 'cause you managed to summon a tiny little Familiar!

-Um...um...
Text: Today,
I’ll say it for sure...

-Definitely today...!
-Um...

-P-Please...
-be my f-f-friend!

Page 18:
-What!?

-I said it-!
Eeek-!
-I...I...

-haven't made any friends yet and...

-Hmmm...

-...Fine.
-Huh?

-Sure, we’ll be your friends from now on!
-Really!?

Page 19:
-Wow...
-Well then, hurry up and carry this!
-I don’t have a lot of physical strength so I get tired pretty quickly.
Besides, aren't friends supposed to help each other out?
-You’ll hold it for me, won’t you~?

-Friends...
-Help each other out...
-Uh-huh!

-I..Izumo-chan!
-She's happy to do it so it's fine, isn't it?

-What the...?
Shiemi's turned into thin brow's servant.
[Tn: He calls Kamiki "Maromayu", which is slang for having tiny/shaved eyebrows. He means it derogatorily.]
-Thin brows...? Oh, you mean Kamiki-san.
-They’re just playin'.

Page 20:
-Can you　go and deliver this for me?
-Yep!

-Go get my share of the Spring Valerianaceae we're using for the next pharmacy class for me.
[Tn: Also known as Spring Patrinia: http://www.healthphone.com/consump_english/encyclopedia/chinese_herbal_files/patrinia.html ]
-Yep!

-Melon Bread, Fruit Milk.
-Yep!

-Hey, that’s...

-She's totally become her bitch...
-What?
-...Nah...it’s nothing.

-Seriously, is there really any point to having a camp session in the dorms?

-Well, it's good that the dorm members aren't here.

-Oh, yeah. This dormitory is pretty quiet, almost like there's no-one here.
-...I just said...there isn't.

Page 21:
-There isn't!?
-We're the only ones living here.
...Didn't you realize that!?

-This is the former upper-division boy's dormitory....
-The normal students live in the new, nicer dorm.
Ah, here it is.

-Incredible! What the hell is that!?
It’s like a Ghost hotel!
-Good morning.

-Ugh, it's creepy.
...Isn't there any place better than this?
Oh yeah, take this.
-Yup.

-Mo...
Moriyama-san!
If you don't want to do it, just say so!
-Paku-san!

Page 22:
-I do want to do it!
-Huh?

-Because it's helping my friend!

-I..see...

-...Alright, time’s up.

-Please flip your worksheets over and pass them around.

-That’s enough for today.
-Tomorrow, get up at 6 o’clock,
and we'll do the answers to our question and answer session for one hour before attending school.

-I'm just gonna go...get some air...
-Yeah, go cool down...

Page 23:
-Paku, let’s go take a bath.
-Okay...
-A bath? I'll come too!

-Wahaha,
-A bath full of women? How nice~~
-Hey, ｗe gotta take a peek! It's our chance.
-Training camps are supposed to come with that sort of fun, right?
Text: It'll be worth it

-Shima!! You're supposed to be a Buddhist priest!
-Yeah yeah, you say that but you guys wanna do it too~
-It’s Shima-san’s bad habit again.
-Please bear in mind that there is a teacher here...

-Teacher, yeah. But aren't you basically a high school freshman?
-Don't be unreasonable~
-I'm against reckless adventures as a principle.

-I-It’s...
The first time I’ve ever had a bath with friends.
-Yeah, sorry but...

Page 24:
-Can you wait outside for us?
-Huh? Why...?

-Because I don't want you to see me naked.

-You should be able to understand that since we're friends.

-Ye...
-Ah, but you don't have to just keep waiting all that time,
You can go buy me some Fruit Milk.
If the baths are hot I'll probably want something to drink.

-Yup.

-Shiemi,

Page 25:
-What are you doing?
Text: Over there.

-Nothing...

-I have to go buy some Fruit Milk...!

-HEY!

-Wh...
What...?
-Will you...just stop that!

-“That”?
-Because you're acting like a bitc...
I mean, you're being an errand runner!
It’s weird!!

Page 26:
-I’m not an errand runner.
-I’m helping my friend!

-You’re not helping her!!

-Do you seriously believe that?
Do you really think so!?

-...I'm always...
hiding behind someone, and being helped. I hate it.
-I just...
-want to be like Rin and Yuki-chan...　

Page 27:
-I want to be strong and help someone!
It's the first time I've ever made a friend!

-You wouldn't understand Rin.
You've always been strong and had friends...

-What...the hell...
was with that outburst of anger!?
HEY! WAIT!
-Whaaa!?

Page 28:
-I'm relieved the bathroom is clean.
I mean, the entire place looks like a ghost house.

-Izumo-chan...weren’t you mean to that girl?

-Huh?
-Yeah, but that’s ‘cause I don’t really think of her as my friend.
-It's her fault for always listening to me. It's not like I'm forcing her to do anything.

-Oh!
But Paku-san, you’re different!
You’re my best friend!
-I was really glad to come to Exorcist School with you!

-But I can't keep up with the class at all...
-It’s alright!

-I’ll protect you!

-Didja hear?
-Kamiki-san went nuts saying she saw another ghost again.
-Really? Scarrry!

Page 29:
-Of course she's lying!
-She's got no friends,
so she just wants to do is show off.
-She’s always by herself!
Didja hear?

-Wait, Kamiki-san!
Since I'm a committee member too, let’s go together!

-...If you're together with me, Paku-san...
They’ll also badmouth you.

-I...
don’t care!

-...I guess I have a bad personality...
-Hahaha.

-You can just stay with me forever, Paku!

-Hey, Izumo-chan.

-I plan on quitting cram school.

Page 30:
-Huh..?
-I don't really understand classes that well, and...
I don't think that I could fight if my life was in danger either...

-That’s...
...That’s why I said...!
-No, that doesn't make sense.

-I don't like...
someone who makes a fool out of earnest people.

-...I’m...I’m sorry...
-It's something I've always wanted to say it, but suddenly I'm not being very clear...

-You're not a true friend. Sorry...

Page 31:
-Kyaaaaaaa!!

-That sounded like Kamiki-san and Paku-san…

Page 32:
-Rin…
-You go tell Yuki!

-Amazing.
-He isn't hesitating...

-He’s going to go help them…!

-Why is he so strong?
-Wait…

33:
-Don’t leave me behind...!

-Paku!!

-It's a ghoul demon...!
If I don't treat that Mashou immediately…

-I ask the grace of Inari, the God of Harvest..!!

Page 34:
-I'll save her!
-Fulfill my prayers!!
-Since Paku is my only friend after all!!

-I'll...

-No, that doesn't make sense.

-...Ah...
-I don't like someone who makes a fool out of earnest people...!

-...Thou...

-Why doest thy heart be in that state...?

Page 35:
-Thou is not worthy of me...!

-Gargh...

-Tear up the paper!
-The paper!

Page 36:
-Oh...!

-Shit...
well, what am I gonna do?
-I can't draw my sword...
Izumo: Why is he standing so boldly in the woman's bathroom in the first place..

-Come quickly, Yukio...!
-Rin!

-You!?
-Paku-san!

-Rin! While I'm treating Paku-san...
-go distract the demon!
-What!?

Page 37:
-Cheh.

-That's easier said than done...!

-C’mon, you disgusting piece of crap!! Over here!!

-...Prince...

-Argh!

Page 38:
-Paku-san..
It seems like she’s been burnt!

-It's the Ghoul's Mashou!

In a few minutes she'll necrosis...!
[Tn: The premature death of cells and living tissue.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Necrosis
be warned, it's icky! -_-]

-Then if we don't hurry up and administer the emergency treatment...!

Page 39:
-For the emergency treatment of burns…
I need Sancho-san!
-Who!?
-What!?

-If only there was some Sancho-san here... I need it to...
[Tn: Sancho-san is her nickname for Aloe vera.]

-Nii!
Nii!

-Nii-chan?
-Ni~~~

Page 40:
-Aloe is coming from the Familiar's body...!?

-Amazing, Ni-chan!
It's Sancho-san~!
-No, that's Aloe, isn't it!?

-Urgh...

Monster:
-For
give
me.

-This is
also the
bidding...

-Gurrgh
-of
my
master.

Page 41:
-Satan…!?

-It’s no use…
I can't...beat it...
-Gurgh...

-I'm at...my limit
-Nii-san!!!!

Page 42:
SFX: Hah Hah

-Yu…kio!
You’re late!!

-Shiemi-san,
is Paku-san…
-Yuki-chan…

-I..I…
-A Familiar...!

-If left untreated, a Ghoul's Mashou can possibly become fatal.
-You've treated the wound correctly.

Page 43:
-If Shiemi-san hadn't been here, it could've turned out pretty bad...

-Moriyama-
San…

-Thank…
You…

-Yep!

Page 44:
-Hm？

-My appearance...
-is mortifying...

-I don't want anyone to see me like this.
-I couldn't do anything...

-My only friend...
-I couldn't help her!

-I hate it...!

Page 45:
-Put that on then hurry up and go!

-you failed, huh...

-Did you just growl?

-...No, you're laughing at me for falling low enough in the world to become a demon's dog.

-Nii-san, why are you half-naked…?
-I just went with the flow…
